As 2013 kicks off, we’ve got a ways to go before the summer blockbuster season, but our best bet for early on in the tentpole madness is J.J. Abrams‘ Star Trek Into Darkness. The first batch of teasers have hinted at an exciting return to his kinetic world and after some low-quality images hit the net over the holiday, Paramount has now released them in high resolution.

Featuring Chris Pine and his crew members, including newcomer Alice Eve, along with the returning Simon Pegg, Zachary Quinto and Zoe Saldana, we also get an image of Bruce Greenwood, as well as a few new looks at our villain, played by Benedict Cumberbatch. Check them all out below and click for best quality.

In the wake of a shocking act of terror from within their own organization, the crew of The Enterprise is called back home to Earth. In defiance of regulations and with a personal score to settle, Captain Kirk leads his crew on a manhunt to capture an unstoppable force of destruction and bring those responsible to justice.

As our heroes are propelled into an epic chess game of life and death, love will be challenged, friendships will be torn apart, and sacrifices must be made for the only family Kirk has left: his crew.

Star Trek Into Darkness lands on May 17th, 2013.
